I suppose the thing to do is stick black tape over them and see how what happens!

I have the passive assist on a Premium Plus Saloon setup. If this helps.

That looks different again, very confused!
All I can say is that does read road signs.

Does it have something visible in the triangle bit? Mine doesn't appear to, feels like i've been randomly given something that takes up space but doesn't do anything..the Garmin sat nav shows road speeds but that appears to be database based.
When they ordered a new windscreen in there was not issue so it must be noted like that against the VIN....it's a mystery! (gets out magnifying glass....)

I'm guessing between them they monitor the white lines for the passive lane assist and read traffic signs for the dash display.
I have no idea which bit does which job though.

I've just done this and can see all the components, I don't know what some of them mean but could it be this?...
COLLIS.WARN. SYS. W/ ACTIVE BRAKE INTERV. FCW STOP
I thought my colleaues has this too and assumed it was radar based from the grille?
Here is the full list....
Full list
I'm now deeply intrigued why a vehicle with Sport Premium Plus only has one of those triangle bits and my Sport has two!

I don't think there is anything behind or in the grille?
Maybe you could ask your colleague to do the same thing and compare the two? Mine's a Premium Plus and has both the triangles.
At least now you know your headunit will work in Mongolia.

Well I did the VIN checks on mine and my colleagues and removed everything that matched....
His different coloured salloon without 360 camera is left with:
REAR-VIEW CAMERA
PALLADIUM SILVER METALLIC PAINT
LIMOUSINE
My estate is left with.....
TELEPHONE ANTENNA
360 DEGREE VIEWING SYSTEM (SURROUND VIEW)
DARK TINTED GLASS
AUTOMATIC REAR-END DOOR
BRILLIANT BLUE METALLIC FINISH
WEIGHT-OPTIMIZED WINDSHIELD
COMBI - VEHICLE
So still no immediate conclusions, not sure what the weight-optimized windshield is about....perhaps that's on all estates? Where is the telephone antenna though!?

I've got the weight optimised windshield too. Maybe it's an estate (Combi!) thing?
I don't have the telephone antenna, but I have a (270) GPS Antenna.

Mine is Sports Premium Plus with two triangles. I have every option except the HUD.

Reading into the features, I believe the large scanner/radars on the windscreen are for the Steering Assist and Lane Assist or has a group the Intelligent Drive.

Wish I actually had those features and not just the scanners taking up space! Think of the electrons wasted with those heating elements....assuming they are connected!

Steering Assist is lovely when stuck in traffic.

Can anyone tell me how long it took to get Mercedes Me setup?
I tried to get it done by the dealer who provided the car but was told the lease company needs to do it. The lease company was very accommodating but it's been almost 2 weeks and I've chased 3 times and the lease company says it's with Mercedes!
